I'm with you. I tried Honeycomb, but as many have already said, it's not a daily driver. It lags, and you have to jump through hoops to get market, youtube, etc.

Eclair runs flawlessly, and my magazine subscriptions are automatically downloaded faithfully every month.

However, I can't wait to see what B&N's April update will bring.
[Nook Color General] IFLATLINEI:
Thats what I hear. LOL Sucks! But im probably going to flash CM7 tonight and that should keep me busy for awhile.
[Nook Color General] bobsilver:
Phiremod 5.3 now. Very happy. The menus and soft keys work well on the NC. Very fast and stable. Very happy. Easy install too.
[Nook Color General] MoCoTerp:
Nookie Comb - which seems to be just a Froyo with Honeycomb themeing. Runs well, flash, etc. Before that, ran Nootered Stock rom.
[Nook Color General] efaden:
Left Stock Rooted on the wife's NC until CM7 is done. Wanted to make sure the sleeping issue was resolved etc.
[Nook Color General] rogerdugans:
If I could change my vote it would now be "Other" although it still is CM7, really-

I've been using the Tablet Tweaks testing version of CM7:

CM7 modified with the development versions of the new Tablet Tweaks that will be merged with CyanogenMod soon (hopefully.)

Basically it brings some status bar tweaks and soft button ideas from Honeycomb and adjusts CM7 to be much more tablet-friendly.

It is built (whenever the dev has changes to test) on the latest nightly and makes it much easier to use the NC.
[Nook Color General] dcumbertop:
I run primarily Nookie Froyo booting from an SD card, but I have the stock ROM running off the eMMC if I want to go back to that. I think as soon as BrianF updates his custom Nookie Froyo.4 for eMMC I'll move to that. I'd been running the .2 version and .4 is an ENORMOUS upgrade. The device is significantly faster than it was before and the market and wi-fi work spot on (for me). Very impressed.

I don't run another ROM because I'm looking primarily for reliability/stability. Might try CM7 once they have an official release, but I'm not into flashing nightlies.
[Nook Color General] Dollyllama:
currently trying various roms off bootable SD cards. Cyanogenmod 7, Nookiecomb, Madmurdock build...

Really can't wait for AOSP Honeycomb to be released.
[Nook Color General] bluewhite79:
stock rooted. most stable.

want to try nookiecomb though.
[Nook Color General] ckb_nc:
Tablet tweaks for CM7

This feels like the most tablet ready rom out there; I have added the OC kernel and custom key layouts.

I really want to run Honeycomb but not stable enough. This is stable and gives me a great feel. Love it
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
CM7 Nightly and Honeycomb

I'm dual-booting both but love honeycomb more. And was for why, CM7 I think is the best because it has normal updates + cool feature. Honeycomb for tablet optimization.
[Nook Color General] cainhunpi:
I am running CM7, and playing around with very unusable builds of miui
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
im now using Nookie Comb. its very very stable and looks pretty sexy, i suggest you guys try it out!
[Nook Color General] sollord:
CM7 with the tablet mods by mad-murdock off the emmc. I was runnign nookie froyo before that and was pretty happy with it but the new tablet tweaks make CM7 the best one in my opinion with the nookie comb mod being second. I'd probably be running Phiremod if it was based off mad-murdocks code base instead of stock CM7 so hopefully once the tablet tweaks hit CM7 nightlies I'll try Phiremod again. I've also got honeycomb on a sd card to play with but ahs other say it's not stable enough yet and won't be till devs get source code access.
[Nook Color General] dwang:
nookie comb for me. Out of all the roms, this one looks the most polished and is pretty stable as well.
[Nook Color General] dexx0008:
this.

I'm doing the exact same thing. I like Honeycomb the best. cm7 is nice for features. i might stick with nookiecomb although i haven't tried cm7 with tablet tweaks and should give that a go.

can anyone quickly compare nookiecomb and cm7 w/ tablet tweaks???
[Nook Color General] Cuhulin:
Rooted stock, for the magazines. I am working to get CM7 working on an SD card with dual boot, but I'm a total noob and failing badly at it.
[Nook Color General] nickjo86:
im running phiremod v6, i like this because he includes OC kernel and gapps, sure CM7 stable is great but i always go back to phiremod
[Nook Color General] dbolton:
Went to phiremod 6.1 / alsa update 041411 last night and I'm loving it. Try it you won't regret it.
[Nook Color General] ahajr143:
I am running rooted stock on emmc with boot menu from SD card with CM7 stable signed version. I am waiting to see what the Froyo version from Barnes & Noble offers.
[Nook Color General] fpga_guy:
The selection of ROM's is really based on the user's criteria. If the user absolutely needs the stock Nook reader, then there is only one choice.

For me, battery life is paramount. So that is leaves only the stock ROM rooted with autonooter 3.0.

If someone needs Flash, then it's froyo or CM7. If you want the latest and greatest, then it's CM7. HC via emulation doesn't count.
[Nook Color General] revolther:
Currently I'm running NookieComb (4.13), because it manages (imo) to come the closest to HoneyComb's (ideal) interface while still allowing me to watch/play flash content and various video formats without any problems.

The only problem I have with NookieComb (besides it not being HC) are the gimped G-Sensor (Only 3 direction rotation, no reading Nook held upside down while it charges), and the funky screen lock.

If there are people here who have somehow got HoneyComb running w/Flash 10.2 functional, I'd appreciate any advice.
[Nook Color General] Kayak83:
I seem to be on rooted stock less and less more. I read on it and use the xda app (still doesn't work for me in cm7). CM7 is pretty full featured but still find it a little laggy when typing. Dual-boot is a blessing. Although a little confusing.
[Nook Color General] wretchedlocket:
Froyo with WretchedBlues.

Would you have expected anything else? lml(-_-)lml
[Nook Color General] dexx0008:
nookiecomb froyo off sd card. still use cm7 from time to time, mainly to use bluetooth.

nookiecomb froyo is the fastest and cleanest for me. Especially the notifications.

i just need bluetooth and wifi fix for the wifi loop when waking from sleep and I'll be content until hc is ready.
[Nook Color General] reaper12:
CM7 nightly build 41 with OC kernel.

I purchased a nook color second hand but couldn't register it, so went looking for ways to root it and CM7 was the first one I found. It's running good though, very stable and very fast, everything works bluetooth and Wifi are fine too.

I might try to install phiremod v6 to an SD card and give it a go sometime.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
CM7.... why people use any version of Froyo is beyond me...
[Nook Color General] pixeljunk:
Because it's fast, smooth, and doesn't eat the crap out of my battery when it goes to sleep. Literally takes 1-2% overnight while it's sleeping. (Instead of the 2+% every hour with CM7.)

The version of Nookie Froyo I'm running has tablet tweaks as well. And for me, it's been a lot more stable than when I was running CM7 RC4. Once they fix the battery issues I may take another look at it. But right now, everything just works and my battery life is fantastic. Why would I switch?
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
CM7 is just as fast (with the newest kernel, faster), smooth as Froyo, and the battery issue is way overblown. The tablet lasts a full day; throw it on the plug at night, and no worries.

If CM7 was unstable for you, you were doing something wrong. Why switch? Better performance, better OS, more features (BT)... a no brainer.
[Nook Color General] pixeljunk:
My experience with Nookie Froyo has been much better than CM7 RC4. Feels a lot faster, very few errors, etc.

The battery issues may be somewhat overblown, sure. But something irks me about having to charge the Nook nearly every day. With Nookie Froyo I can literally go 3-4 days of fairly moderate use without needing to reach for the plug or power it down.

I'm fine with Nookie Froyo. Isn't that the only thing that matter? :) Just like some people are fine with rooted stock, honeycomb, etc.
[Nook Color General] dexx0008:
unless I don't know how to set them up right, nookiecomb froyo has cleaner notifications.

glad to hear latest kernels are faster. i actually have sd cards with both and swap often. bt is excellent but just needs a bit more range and the issue with bt and wifi not playing nice together worked out. both are great and make the nook so much more powerful.
[Nook Color General] sc37:
CM7 is blazing fast, but I do have a few issues every once in a while such as FCs. Froyo worked just fine and met all my needs. I definitely have no issue with going back to it if I decide to switch again.
[Nook Color General] :
Does froyo suffer from not being able to sleep as well?
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
No, because it suffers the opposite; it won't wake up in some cases. Frankly, that was far more annoying for me, so went to CM7 and never looked back.

For those curious why i am so against Froyo; I hate seeing good development resources wasted on an outdated OS. Cm7 would be even that much better if everyone got together, and put their work towards it. Instead we have all these silly NookieFroyoHoneyBreadCreams, that are cobbled together functionality, rather than one tight code base. We have SO much talent here, it seems so silly to keep wasting it on Froyo; its out dated and behind... lets move on..
[Nook Color General] poppscc:
the battery issue is not overblown. it's a real issue, and one of the very few issues I have with cm7. If that were fixed, it would be the best out there.

Hoping for an official nook froyo. Need better battery life.
[Nook Color General] pixeljunk:
The only issue I have with Froyo coming out of sleep is the occasional wifi looping. But, there's a pretty easy fix that I stumbled across. Hold the power button in, choose to power it down, then wait for about 5 seconds on shut down confirmation screen. Wifi will come back while you're on this screen.

Why / how it works? I'm not sure.

That is the only issue I have with Nookie Froyo. Everything else works great. Once CM7 can fix the battery issues I'll check it out again. But I'd rather have to occasionally fix the wifi instead of charging the Nook constantly.
[Nook Color General] dexx0008:
If I just go to settings --> wireless & networks, turn off wifi, then turn it back on right away it always pulls me out of the wifi looping. not sure if this is faster but works for me and seems to take minimal amount of time.
[Nook Color General] lalleyne:
Phiremod 6.1

I started out intending to just root and experiment with bootable SD, got fed up after about 2 hours and put CM7 on emmc. I've never had anything electronic that I didn't end up tearing apart and modifying, so why start now? :-P
[Nook Color General] brento1:
i'm currently running Phiremod 6.1 off a bootable SD card. It is fast but for what I do with the NC i would rather have battery life. Stock rooted i last for over a week without charging. I like having Phiremod off SD because I can easily swap back and forth or flash new things without messing up my stock settings.
[Nook Color General] mazook98:
THIS...^^^^^^^+1..Needs to be a Required to Read Stickie.

(Eclair is even MORE outdated, yet still people want to put an OS on an SD card, just to preserve the precious 2.1 stock)..

Unless it's your wife's Nook and she's bigger than you, I can't understand the reason for that.

PS...stealing "NookieFroyoHoneyBreadCreams"
[Nook Color General] pixeljunk:
I'd say that most people running from SD don't want to void their warranty. That's the reason I'm running from the SD. If you've got a quality SD card then the differences really aren't that big. I've compared both methods and, to be honest, see almost zero difference.
[Nook Color General] mazook98:
No matter what your EMMC looks like, you can always flash a complete restore zip file in the parking lot of a Barnes and Nobles..if you ever had a warranty issue...if you can make a bootable OS...you can just as easily make a bootable cwr... benchmarks on emmc (any benchmarks) are just better all around....the problems with fc's because of 'unnatural' location of data files or the inability to fulfill permissions is not worth the trouble, even if the benches were comparable, IMO.

hopefully... and with happily ever-after ending...
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
It'll probably be impossible until Microsoft finishes the socket APIs. Once they do that (which we will hopefully hear about next month at MIX), I'm sure someone will create apps for it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] webwalk®:
voxofon is said to be able to do it

also calling skype

ive tried it once, it didnt work

all it did was try to call a number Oo

try it or just wait a lil more
[Windows Phone 7 General] froibet:
if you go through with the call, it will direct it to the skype user
[Windows Phone 7 General] wolfgangw:
The socket API's should have been finished until know but probably aren't. Has someone further details about that?

Greetings

[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hax:
It seems Verizon aims to cover just about any large-medium-sized cities in the US....

Lets look at this map: http://network4g.verizonwireless.com/pdf/VZW_4G_LTE_Coverage_Map.pdf

- Bristol?... 1st of all, that has a population of around 30k... That'sa not even really Virginia! Seriously?...

According to that map, Washington is the only part of Virginia Verizon covers now. There's no other stars on the map for Virginia.. wtf? Verizon doesn't even PLAN to cover Virginia outside of Washington, DC for the rest of the year??!?! Washington DC has a population of around 700k. Hampton Roads: Nearly 2 million! Not only that, but Hampton Roads is home to the world's largest naval air base! And Verizon just decided "Meh, screw them!"??!?

I'm sorry if I'm ranting but Verizon's choice of cities to cover... lots of them just simply don't even make sense!

Can someone enlighten me on this?
[General Questions and Answers] vsabre:
No love for Richmond either...

Same boat. I'm pretty incredulous that there is not a single Virginia city on any Verizon LTE list..

Pretty sad:mad:
[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hax:
Lolz maybe we could do a change.org-like petition thing :p (the reason I mentioned Memphis was cause I was raised there, not many people even have smartphones over there!)
[General Questions and Answers] g00s3y:
It probably also depends on the amount of people in a given area that actually have VZW. Just because it might have 2 million people, doesn't mean that Verizon is widely used there.

You just made me **** brix 0.0

Did you do a speedtest? :3 And how far did it reach? Btw, not that its my business, but what were you doing to notice 4G while driving? 0.0 Haha lolwardriving(:
[General Questions and Answers] mdbrotha03:
lol I wasn't driving. I was using Google services for location.

Download speeds between 6-15.9 mbps. Upload speeds from 2-6.7mbps

From what I have seen it doesn't go too far away from this location. I got for a sec while trying to get on Fort Eustis back gate. Lost 4G while traveling in Williamsburg. Perfect 4G signal while at home.
[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hax:
Now I want a Thunderbolt ish :p
[General Questions and Answers] mdbrotha03:
Just an Update I still have 4G service at my location. Download speed top out at 25mbps.
[General Questions and Answers] tyrich30:
I can second mdbrotha. There is LTE service between The Lee Hall and Ft. Eustis exits on 64. I notice it on my phone right before the big storm. I was only getting LTE at the Wendy's on Warwick Blvd.
[General Questions and Answers] tyrich30:
I went into a Verizon store yesterday and told a rep that I was get LTE at this one location and he told me that LTE was turned on at the tower at the Lee Hall exit. The rep said LTE was going to be turned on Sept. 30 and that it would roll down from Toano to Va Beach. I hope this brings a smile to a lot of people waiting for some Hampton Roads info. I will put up some screen shot as soon as I reach 8 post.
[General Questions and Answers] gamewarden3006:
Yea I just bought a Bionic and the rep said that most all of Hampton Rds would get in in October
[General Questions and Answers] mdbrotha03:
So I went into a Verizon store yesterday and heard one of the reps say the Newport News area will get 4G in about 2 weeks or so.

After he was done with the lady I asked him a few questions. I mentioned that I had 4g in my area. He knew the area that I lived at, mention that I am around on of the trial sites (which I figured) and said I should have perfect 4g connectivity (which I do)

If Hampton Roads area gets LTE by October I might switch from Tmobile to Verizon. Verizon is the only cell company expanding their 4G footprint.

Hampton Roads LTE

I live in Norfolk near the base, and can confirm 4G there this morning. None in Downtown Newport News by the shipyard yet though.
[General Questions and Answers] tyrich30:
I have had 4G on all day from Fox Hill area all the way to Ft. Eustis. I still have 4G on base right now. Maybe Verizon turned it on. :D
[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hax:
Anymore updates? I live 3 minutes from Norfolk International Airport, and don't have a 4G phone (yet). To be more specific, I live near Diamond Springs road. Anyone experience 4G in these areas yet? I know it gets turned on on the 20th, but I'm sure its already mostly on now, and I'm itching to know if its working in my area yet lol
[General Questions and Answers] NardVa:
Just seen a Verizon Wireless commercial saying 4G LTE is now available in Hampton Roads.

i live in norfolk near norfolk state 4g is a no go here i even just un rooted my phone to see if that was the problem but its just not here

Verizon has had 4G LTE in the Hampton Roads area since the beginning of this month. I have had it on my Droid Charge for quite some time now. (Live in Norfolk, work in Norfolk/Virginia Beach/Chesapeake)

Hey guys I wanna know if I can install all apps directly to SD card instead of moving them 1 by 1 its really hectic to move about 100 apps since der are updates frequently by the developer
[GT540 Optimus General] lavero.burgos:
You cant and here is why:

If app uses any of the following features, it cannot be installed on the external storage. It's required by Android system.

App Widgets,

Services,

Input Method Engines,

Live Wallpapers,

Live Folders,

Alarm Services,

Account Managers,

Sync Adapters,

Device Administrators
[GT540 Optimus General] despotovski01:
With Titanium Backup, there's a batch operation to move all installed apps to external storage. But, if you want to install them directly to sd card, go to settings/cyanogenmod settings/applications. Then, check "Allow application moving", and set "Install location" to external.
[GT540 Optimus General] ammarcool12:
I do that but I use my backup root so it installs direct on phone memory

Hello! Everyone,

I am desperately need some help. It's almost six months since I read about flashing custom roms and until now I can't find the courage to do it. For I don't muster enough knowledge (I think) in doing it.

I have an HTC Universal running in wm5. I want to flash it into wm 6.5. Is there some body who can forward me the suitable ROM and help me in the process of upgrading it? I really want to flash it to WM 6.5 so I can install cool looking GUI of e book reader in my device and some more eye candy stuffs.

Thanks in advance!

Hello, Orb!

Hello! Orb,

It would really help me if you can point out what are the preliminary things I need to do than saying click your signature. :)

That is really what you did last time I ask about how to upgrade my Unit. Until now It gave me no confidence because I don't know where will I begin. I hope you can re consider helping me out. Thanks!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] orb3000:
read, Search, Respect and Enjoy!

I can tell you that the only way you´ll get to flash is to read a lot, we all started same as you, first of all loose the fear, if you follow the instructions all will be fine.

Said that you need to read my signature link, try looking in there for:

It was not so hard, isn't´it?

Good luck,
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] xonic211:
At least tell me the benefits of flashing ROM? Why will I flash my Device from windows mobile 5 to windows mobile 6?

Thank you so much!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] orb3000:
More than benefits it´s an addiction for some of us;)

And of course you also have benefits, better, newer versions and so on

Nothing else I can´t say if you don´t flash:)

Good luck!
